CA waste facility eliminates odor complaints for their organic green waste and sludge composting operation
The Problem - The large California facility takes in a great deal of green waste (grass clippings, vegetable & fruit waste, leaves and other vegetation) and food processing sludge. It is all combined and recycled into high grade mulch and compost in their site composting operation. The nature of the waste and the composting process leads to the release of high concentrations of odor - ...

Disposal of seaweed wakame (Undaria pinnatifida) in composting process by marine bacterium Halomonas sp. AW4
A novel marine bacterium, identified as Halomonas sp. AW4 by partial 16S rDNA analysis, was isolated from the seaweeds in Awaji Island, Japan. Strain AW4 grew well even in the wide NaCl concentration ranges of 0?3 mol/L, where it showed an optimal growth in the presence of 0.5 mol/L NaCl. The organic components were reduced to 73.6% of initial dry weight after 168 h of composting by inoculation ...

What is an organic waste composting appliance, its purpose, and its working principle
Now, a large amount of waste is generated every day, both at the domestic level and industrial level. It is most important to handle waste effectively. The food is deserte into landfills free of methane which is dangerous for the earth as an entire. Composting is the best method to handle the waste. How to successfully compost? Composting means recycling green waste composter ...

Evaluating the potential of an electronic nose for detecting the onset of anaerobic conditions during composting
Most bad odours in composting plants are formed under anaerobic conditions and often they could be avoided if detected early enough. In this project an electronic nose was used to evaluate the odours produced during a composting process at bench scale. The electronic nose consists of an array of electronic chemical sensors with partial specificity and an appropriate pattern recognition system ...

Composting of vegetable waste in subtropical climates
This experiment examined the possibility of using composting as a method of waste disposal in subtropical countries, such as the United Arab Emirates (UAE), where temperatures are high and humidity is low. In order to simulate conditions in the UAE, a representative mixture of wastes generated in the UAE was prepared and tested at ambient temperatures resembling those of subtropical countries. ...

Determination of the relative and absolute humidity in Compost piles by differential pectroscopy using Tuneable diode lasers
The composting of biological waste is an important step towards the establishment of closed cycles of matter. A constantly high quality of the compost is, however, of utmost importance for the deliberate re-introduction of compost into the environment. The quality of the compost produced is determined by a very complex biological process during which the organic wastes are converted with the aid ...

Inland Empire Regional Composting Facility (IERCF) - Case Study
The Inland Empire Regional Composting Facility (IERCF) was constructed under a Joint Powers Authority agreement between the Inland Empire Utilities Agency and the LA County Sanitation Districts to manufacture exceptional quality compost that is good: for soil, plants, the environment, and public health. The in-vessel, 150,000 ton per year co-composting facility processes a blend of green ...

Effects of the anaerobic biowaste treatment processes Management on the digestate quality (residues from Digestion/compost, process water/wastewater)
Regarding the municipally-collected biowaste amount in Germany, a quantity of 90 - 100 kg/ per annum per citizen is registered (Gallenkemper and Doedens, 1994). That results in an annual biowaste amount of 6.3 to 7 million tons in the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG), whereby also sewage sludges and biogenic, industrial wastes are added. According to Hochrein (1994) about 3 million tons of ...

Organic Fertilizer Manufacturing Process Fermentation Mode
Organic fertilizer, commonly known as farm manure, consists of various animal, plant residues or metabolites, such as human and animal manure, straw, animal residues, slaughterhouse waste, etc. Carbon-containing materials, mainly from plants and animals, are applied to the soil to provide plant nutrition as its main function. It not only provides comprehensive nutrition for crops, but also has ...

Composting of a mixture of orange and cotton Industrial wastes and the influence of adding olivemill Wastewater
The rapid expansion of the agro-industry during recent decades has led to the increasing production of organic wastes. Some such agroindustrial wastes are olive mill wastewater (OMW), the waste from orange juice extraction (OW) and the waste from cotton gins (CW). The OMW resulting from olive oil production contains olive pulp, mucilage, pectin, oil, the vegetable water of the fruit and the water ...

How to compost pig manure into high quality organic fertilizer?
As we all know, fresh pig manure is rich in organic matter, but also contains a lot of volatile substances, pathogenic microorganisms, parasite eggs and heavy metals. In addition, fresh pig manure can produce an unpleasant smell. Therefore, unfermented pig manure cannot be used directly. But managed pig manure is free of odors and bacteria or parasite eggs. At the same time, bacterial protein and ...

Reduction of ammonia emissions during composting by Uncoupling of oxygen demand and heat removal
Intensive pig production systems result in high emissions of ammonia, odour and greenhouse-gases (methane and laughing gas) by exhaust ventilation air. Moreover, large amounts of manure (faeces and urine) are produced with insufficient nearby land for applications (Imbeath, 1998). These outputs lead to environmental problems related to acidification and euthrofication of natural ecosystems, ...

Organic fertilizer production technology - aerobic composting technology
Aerobic composting technology is an important technical means for the disposal of organic waste, especially suitable for the realization of fertilizer and substrate of agricultural solid waste. For industrialized processing of organic fertilizer, compost turning machine is usually used to ensure the smooth progress of aerobic fermentation. Aerobic composting is the absorption, oxidation, and ...

Why buy modern organic fertilizer processing machine
The traditional artificial composting is not suitable for the development of modern agriculture. The simple composting method has a long time to treat livestock manure, a low content of organic fertilizer nutrients and a slow release. After years of development, modern organic fertilizer production machine has become the development trend of organic fertilizer production in the future. The ...
